Spain’s Grid Operator Denies Risk of Imminent Power Blackout After Sharp Voltage Swings

Spain’s electricity-grid operator said there was no risk of an imminent second major blackout in the country after detecting two sharp voltage variations in recent weeks.

Red Electrica which operates Spain’s grid, and in which the Spanish government owns a 20% stake, said the recent voltage swings didn’t pose a risk to the supply of electricity because they didn’t surpass the acceptable limits.
